EST3N e t w o r k
EST3 is a modular system uniquely designed to easily meet the needs of standalone single node systems or multi-node networks. Fire alarm, security, and audio functions use the same fundamental components, simplifying system layouts. A powerful System Definition Utility program helps define sys-tem operations in a fraction of the time required by previous methods. Virtually all EST3 operating features are software controlled. This gives EST3 great site flexibility and ensures operational changes and upgrades will be possible years after the initial installation.
Highly Flexible ApplicationsEST3 is a superbly adaptable life safety system, lending itself to medium and large building applications. Cabinets are available with room for system batteries up to 65 Amp hours. With EST3, one 24-volt battery supports up to four power sup-plies. Each supply will support up to 7 Amp load. With four supplies, 28 Amps of current is available — all backed up by a common battery.
Fully-listed User InterfacesThe user interface layer is made up of a Liquid Crystal Display module and a system of generic modules designed to maximize design flexibility for custom systems.
In addition to front panel control and annunciation, EST3’s powerful FireWorks color graphics package provides desktop control and messaging in the familiar Windows environment. Fireworks’ unique four-quadrant display gives the user ac-cess to all EST3 functions including fire alarm, security, and CCTV – in one simple and intuitive interface. And because FireWorks is an integral part of the EST3 network, it is listed by UL not only under fire alarm standards, but under local burglar, and proprietary monitoring standards as well. In fact, EST3 panels and FireWorks are the only such systems with this range of qualifications.
Powerful NetworkingEST3 operates on a multi priority peer-to-peer token ring network. The multi-priority token ring gives EST3 exceptional response. Response time for all functions, including fire and security, is less than three seconds across the network regard-less of the total number of nodes. EST3 token ring network configuration also permits vast distances between nodes. The allowable distance between three nodes on #18AWG (0.75mm2) is 5,000ft (1,523m). With 64 nodes supported on a network, the total network length is in excess of 300,000 ft (91,400m), or nearly 60 miles! A single node supports up to 10 Signature loop controllers with 250 devices per loop, (2,500 points total per node).
EST3 also makes field wiring easy with building wiring ter-minations that use removable terminal blocks on local rail modules. Panel design allows for the required separation of high voltage and power-limited wiring.
Eight-channel AudioEST3 audio design provides the emergency user with a
communication package that minimizes switch selections. This facilitates simple, accurate and fast evacuation control an-nouncements. EST3 provides simple paging controls. Pressing All Call selects all paging zones for message delivery. Pressing Page To Evacuation automatically selects all areas in evacuation. Similarly, the user can Page To Alert. Zoned paging requires the user to simply select zone paging switches.
Taking full advantage of digital technology, up to eight chan-nels of audio sources can be sent over a single twisted pair of wires between nodes. Coupling the inherent reliability and performance of zoned amplifiers with EST3 simplified user in-terfaces makes audio system design and operation both easy and dependable.
EST3 is the right choice for any medium to large application. Its multiplex functions are second to none in the industry today.

Application: Multiple EST3-Sixty Networks with Fireworks on Dedicated UL2572 Listed IP Network using IP & VOIP com-munications
Fire alarm and Mass Notification (ECS/MNS): no matter what the configuration, EST3-Sixty provides a total life safety system. With fire alarm providing the communications backbone, EST3-Sixty is UL2572 Listed for ECS/MNS operations, while retaining its UL864 Listing as a fire alarm control system. This unique standing ensures that ECS/MNS functions are in perfect harmony with other life safety operations.
Only EST3-Sixty can ensure that ECS/MNS retains priority over fire alarm events and that Mass Notification will not affect the network response speed of fire reporting mandated by codes and standards.
The benefits of this method are many. Mass Notification now benefits from the survivability and reliability mandated by the fire codes and life safety standards. Costs are reduced because system resources are shared. Installation of a single unified system is vastly more efficient than installing multiple interconnected systems. There is no finger pointing, patchwork protocols or gateways that combine one system with another. Just the simple elegance of a single system unencum-bered by needless redundancy. EST3 achieves true operational unity with single-system responsibility.

Central Processor Unit
The central processor unit is the heart of the EST3 network node. As a single node standalone system, a single 3-CPU3 controls up to 19 local rail modules. For larger systems, up to 64 nodes intercon-nect on a peer-to-peer multi-priority token ring protocol network.
The central proces-sor unit controls a l l loca l pane l r e s p o n s e s t o automatic, user initiated, or net-work reported events. As a network node, it is an equal among peers: there is no master on the network. Multi-priority token ring means that a node with a new alarm has priority on the network. This gives exceptional response times over the network — less than three seconds.
Each central processor unit provides connectors for mounting network, RS-232, and memory expansion cards. Removable terminal blocks on the central processor unit support connection of network and audio data wiring. On-board common relays also terminate at the central processor unit terminals. To aid in troubleshooting and service, status LEDs monitor local rail, network, RS232 and audio data communications.
3-CPU3 CentralProcessorUnitModule DataSheet:85010-0133
Network Communication CardThe Network Communications card mounts to the back of the Central Processor Unit. The 3-RS485A card provides a Class A (Style 7) or Class B (Style 4) circuit for network communications signals and two additional circuits for Class A (Style 7) digitized audio signals. The 3-RS485B card provides a Class B (Style 4) circuit for network communications signals and a second Class B (Style 4) circuit for the digitized audio signals. Network messages received by the Network Communications card are re-transmitted to the next network node.

Signature Driver Controller Modules
The 3-SSDC1 and 3-SDDC1 Signature Driver Controller modules provide an intelligent interface between the 3-CPU(1.3) module and Signature Series devices. Each module contains its own microprocessor used to coordinate, process and interpret information received from and sent to Signature de-vices. Power and communications is received directly from the control panel rail assembly. The 3-SSDC1 Single Signature Driver Controller module sup-ports one Signature Data circuit, while the 3-SDDC1 Signature Dual Driver Controller module supports two Signature circuits. Both modules occupy one rail space in the fire alarm control cabinet and provide removable field wiring terminals to aid installation.
Innovative design gives the 3-SSDC1/3-SDDC1 and Signature devices truly “distributed intelligence”. Signature detectors and modules have their own on-board microprocessor communicating with the loop controller in a fully digital communication format. This increases the accuracy of the information coming to and from the loop controller by reducing the effects of capacitance and noise.
With decentralized intelligence much of the decision making moves from the loop controller to the devices. Advanced fire detection algorithms processed within the Signature devices effectively end unwanted alarms. Environmental compensation and multiple sensing element decision making operations are resident in the devices. Intelligent devices allow the Signature Controllers to execute communication and system functions with greater speed and low baud rates, increasing the accuracy of information transmitted between the loop controller and devices.
To enhance survivability of the system the 3-SSDC1/3-SDDC1 supports a standalone mode for Signature devices. Two catastrophic failure modes are supported. If the 3-CPU(1/3) fails, the loop controller will continue to poll its devices. If an alarm is detected it will be sent on the local rail communication bus and received by other local rail modules. A common alarm condition throughout the panel will result. If the local rail module (3-SSDC1/3-SDDC1) fails, and a device (smoke or module) detects an alarm, specialized circuitry will make the node aware of the alarm condition. The 3-CPU(1/3) will com-municate the alarm condition to the rest of the network. Having multiple redundant modes is paramount in a life safety system.

Off Premise Signaling ModuleThe 3-OPS supports three separate off premises signaling modes of operation:
‘Old’stylereversepolarityoperation has only a single reversed polarity output. In the normal state the output is 24 Vdc current limited to 6 mA. In the alarm state the polarity reverses. Should the EST3 panel go into trouble from the normal state, the voltage is removed from the output terminals of the 3-OPS. This change will be detected by the central station as a trouble. Alarm always has priority over trouble. Trouble relay contacts must be configured for normally-closed operation.
‘New’stylereversepolarityoperation allows the 3-OPS to output three independent reversing polarity signals. These are alarm, supervisory, and trouble. In each case an active condition causes the terminal output voltage to reverse. Should the central station detect a loss of voltage, the condition is due to line failure. When configured for “new” style operation, a set of trouble contacts is available.
City Tie connection. In this configuration the 3-OPS has terminals for a local energy master fire alarm box. The module operates into a 14 ohm coil and supervises the city tie connection for open conditions. Trouble relay contacts are configurable for normally-open or normally-closed.

Fiber Optics Communications Interface
Fiber optic communications provide a high level of immunity from electrical noise. Circuits are power limited and suitable for use through hazardous atmospheres. Fiber optic circuits also provide a high level of security and are resistant to the effects of moisture.
EST3 networks easily configure to single or multi mode fiber optic or combination fiber optic/copper networks using the 3-FIBMB2 Fiber Optic Communications Interface and the appropriate fiber optic transceivers.
The 3-FIBMB2 electronics card plugs right into the CPU. A rib-
bon cable connects the 3-CPU directly to the 3-FIBMB2 fiber interface card. The interface card mounts in the ½ footprint space in a 3-CHAS7 chassis or 3-CAB5 enclosure.
The 3-FIBMB2 supports from one to four single or multi mode transceivers. The SMXLO standard output single mode transceiver is suitable for distances up to approximately 8.7 miles (14km). The SMXHI2 high output single mode transceiver is available to span distances up to approximately 24 miles (40km). For multi mode applications, the MMXVR transceiver is suitable for distances up to approximately 8,000ft (2,400m).

Modem Communicator
The Modem Communicator is a two-way local rail module that performs a variety of off-premise communications functions for the EST3 system unavailable on any other system. The module has provisions for supervising two loop-start telephone lines. It features a modular jack for telephone line connections, as well as database download from a PC. The Modcom’s configuration and firmware can also be updated from any network node.
Modcom series modules occupy a single local rail space and can be mounted in any node on the network. Any EST3 Control/Display module can be mounted on the face of a Modcom series module. Power for the Modcom is supplied by the EST3 system supply.
The Modcom provides an enhanced level of survivability in the event of a network CPU failure by notifying the Central Monitoring Station of the failure and entering a degraded mode of operation. In degraded mode, the Modcom can transmit a default fire alarm message during a fire alarm condition.
Two versions of the Modcom are available:
3-MODCOM- This internal modem is a V.32bis 14.4K baud full duplex modem. The modem permits the remote upload and download of system data via a telephone line.
3-MODCOMP – In addition to all modem and dialer (DACT) functions of the 3-MODCOM, the 3-MODCOMP can dial directly into paging systems using Telelocator Alphanumeric Protocol (TAP). Alphanumeric system data can be sent to a single pager or groups of pagers. Some pager services can forward messages via e-mail and Fax.
Each Modcom can buffer up to 500 events in its event queue. It reviews all active events in the queue and identifies the highest priority event and dials the associated receiver. The Modcom then identifies all other events in the queue that are destined to the same receiver as the highest priority event. All event information for that receiver is then trans-mitted. The next high priority event is identified and the process repeated.
The Modcom series has been designed for installation on the same phone lines with other devices such as faxes and answering machines. The module makes its first dial out attempt on either of the two phone lines that is not in use. This prevents unnecessary interruption of calls in progress by the line seizure relays. In the event that both lines are busy, the module seizes one of the busy lines. A fixed DACT testing time can be set at an off-hour, e.g. 2:00am, again minimizing inter-ruptions.
The answering machine override feature permits Modcom modules to be installed on a standard telephone line. The Modcom series also has the ability to detect Type 2 and Type 3 distinctive ringing patterns, permitting it to share its phone lines with other devices and still have a unique phone number for incoming calls.

Liquid Crystal Display Modules
LCD display modules provide system control and annunciation from any network node location at which they are installed. Modules feature backlit high-contrast supertwist graphical displays and mount to
the local rail over the node’s central processing unit (3-CPU3). Simple-to-understand LEDs and switches help the emergency user display information and execute system commands with confidence.
3-LCDXL1 modules feature large screens that support 24 lines of text 40 characters in length – enough space to display eight events simulaneously. It occupies four local rail module spaces.
3-LCD modules support eight lines of text 21 characters in length. They occupy two local rail module spaces.
EST3 networks can support any combination of 3-LCDXL and 3-LCD display modules.

Control Display Modules
EST3 Control Display modules provide the emergency user with the simplest of interfaces: lights and switch controls. Control Display Modules install over local rail modules. There are five types of modules available.
The first module supports simple zone annunciation; the second, zone annunciation with zone dis-able; the third, alarm and trouble zone annunciation; the fourth, alarm and trouble zone annuncia-tion with zone disable. Typically, alarm zone annunciation appears on any of these module types.
The fifth module is very adaptable to system requirements for audio or remote equipment control. Each contains 18 LEDs and 18 switches. And each group of three switches has a latching-interlock to support operations that must be kept separated. The interlock is under software control so only one switch is active at a given time.

FireWorksFireWorks is a family of software and hardware options that work in concert with EST3 fire alarm applications, as well as EST3-Sixty — the Edwards mass notification/emergency communication (ECS/MNS) solution.
FireWorks provides an intuitive user interface, taking what could be an overwhelmingly large amount of information and presenting it in an easy-to-understand format. FireWorks does this by dividing major sys-tem functions into easy-to-manage viewports. These viewports make the system intuitive to use because information is presented logically.
FireWorks is event driven. This greatly increases the user’s ability to deal with system events by eliminating the confusion sometimes experienced when systems present all information at once. FireWorks automatically prioritizes the events for the user in an Event Viewport. Here the highest priority event is displayed first, and the lowest priority event is displayed last. This allows the user to quickly determine which events warrant the most immediate attention.
Each of the other supporting viewports provides specific information and/or control options that relate to the event highlighted in the Event Viewport. Related information may include event action information (specific tasks the user may need to perform in response to the event), or information about the area where the event has taken place (any hazardous materials present in the area, etc.). Images, CCTV, video, audio messages, web pages, and graphical maps may also be presented to aid in the understanding of an event and how it should be managed.
For more information please refer to Data Sheet 85006-0067.

ECS/MNS Local Operations Consoles
EST3 remote annunciation and control equipment is ideally suited to serve mass notification/emergency communication (ECS/MNS) pur-poses. LCD display modules, remote microphones, and control and display modules configured for ECS/MNS operation provide everything that’s needed for annunciation, control, and paging operations. In these applications, annunciators are configured to operate as Local Operation Consoles (LOCs), from which ECS/MNS is initiated and controlled.
See Data Sheet 85010-0148 for more information.
Remote Annunciators
Use EST3 remote annunciators wherever a com-pact system status display is needed. Annunciator configurations include: LCD only display, LED only display, or combination LED and LCD display in a single enclosure. Display and control is provided by the 3-LCD and Control Display Modules. Control/Display modules install over any annunciator sup-port module, maximizing annunciator design flex-ibility. A lamp test feature can program to any spare control switch. If a 3-LCD display is installed in the annunciator, simply operate the Alarm Silence and Trouble Silence switches simultaneously to lamp test all LEDs. 3-REMICA remote microphones can also be installed in annunciator cabinets.

Network AudioConfiguring EST3 audio is a matter of selecting components for installation in standard fire alarm cabinet assemblies. EST3 uses zoned amplifiers. This re-duces wire runs and space needs at a central location. Audio control equipment and zoned amplifiers use the same system power supplies as fire alarm com-ponents. All these components are supported by a common standby battery. Where multiple nodes make up the system, a single pair of wires carries eight channels of digital audio between nodes.
Audio and Telephone MastersThe Audio Source Unit converts analog signals to digital signals. Sampling the analog signal 9600 times per second provides high quality reproduction of audio sources. On-board audio memory stores signal tones and/or alarm-alert verbal messages. The ASU comes standard with two minutes of memory for tone and message storage. Available message memory expands to 32 minutes with the optional 3-ASUMX/32 memory expansion card. The ASU supports 3 and 4 state operation per UL864 9th edition.
Audio Source Units support connection of a local microphone, remote microphone, telephone voice line, and auxiliary audio input. With eight audio channels, combinations of paging, alert, evacuation signaling and automatic messages are available for simultaneous delivery to different parts of a building.
When the system requires paging, only the 3-ASU or 3-ASU/4 Audio Source Units provide a master paging microphone with common controls. Switch labeling makes the operation intuitive. Six LEDs and five switches cover paging operations.
Audio Source Units mount in one chassis space of a EST3 Lobby Enclosure. In addition to the paging microphone, the 3-ASU/4 has mounting space for up to four local rail modules, including 20, 40, and 90 watt zone amplifiers, and up to four Control Display modules. This increases layout flexibility. The 3-ASU provides the same functionality as the 3-ASU/4 but is supplied with an inner door filler plate and no local rail module spaces.
The 3-FTCU contains the master telephone handset that pro-vides an analog telephone riser for two-way communications between the fire command station and firefighter’s telephone stations installed in the facility. The 3-FTCU features an alpha-numeric display that indicates both incoming and connected calls. Up to five remote telephones may be connected to the riser simultaneously. The fire command center operator can also use the telephone circuit as a page source, permitting paging via the telephone system.

SecurityAs a true multiplex life safety system, EST3 supports fire alarm as well as security functions. The capacity for this additional functionality is built right into every EST3 panel. All that’s needed to take advantage of it is a handful of specialized components.
Security/Annunciator Control Module
The 3-SAC Security/Annunciator Control Module is a key component that blends security functions into the EST3 multiplex life safety system. The 3-SAC is the demarcation point between fire and security functions. For jurisdictions requiring independent wiring of fire and security devices, the 3-SAC offers two independent circuits. Where fire and security devices are permitted to be connected to the same circuit, both circuits can support fire and security functions. All security devices that connect to a 3-SAC are designed, tested and listed to strict fire alarm standards.
The 3-SAC is used in combination with the Modcom Mo-dem Communicator. The Modcom’s dialer (DACT) function transmits alarms to one or more central monitoring stations and/or paging terminals. Additionally, information received by the Modcom can be downloaded through the 3-SAC to individual security devices.
The EST3 network ensures that fire alarm events always receive the highest priority over routine signal processing. Power for the 3-SAC comes from the same highly-reliable power supply/battery combination used to power fire alarm components. Any Control Display module will mount in front of the 3-SAC, allowing great flexibility of the system user interface layout.

Dual Input Security Module
The SIGA-SEC2 is an intelligent analog addressable device used to connect one or two normally-open or normally-closed dry contact security circuits. The actual function of this module is determined by the “personality code” selected by the installer. This code is downloaded to the module from the Signature loop controller during system configuration. The input module gathers data from the devices connected to it and converts them into digital signals. The module’s on-board microprocessor analyzes the signal and decides whether or not to input an alarm, tamper, or maintenance condition. The module is housed in a small thermo-plastic enclosure de-signed for surface mounting.

Main Panel Power Supplies
EST3 Power supplies consist of two assemblies, a high efficiency switch mode power supply card and a power supply monitor module. Up to four power supplies may be combined in a single enclosure to provide up to 28 amps of available current. Battery backup is provided using from one to four sets of batteries, depending on standby power requirements to support up to 260 AH batteries
The power supply comes in two styles: a primary supply and a booster supply. Each power supply produces 7 amps of filtered and regulated 24 VDC. The primary power supply provides the system with battery charging and voltage regulation. The booster supplies work in concert with the primary supply are avail-able with or without battery
charging capability. Software configuration configures the battery changing circuits for either 10-24 AH batteries or 30 – 65 AH batteries and controls the high/low charge rate.
EST3 power supplies individually monitor batteries for load defi-ciencies, short circuits, and insufficient voltage levels and report trouble back to the 3-CPU3. The 3-LCD displays any troubles and the power supply’s address, a specific trouble code, and a text message describing the specific trouble.

CDR-3 Coder
The CDR-3 Coder is an auxiliary circuit option module that provides two audio outputs, March Time and PSNI, (Positive, successive, non-interfering). Dry relay contacts are provided for PSNI code, march time and duration. For the PSNI code, the RS-232C input provides communications, between EST3’s RS-232 communications card and the CDR-3. The RS-232 port is actively supervised by the CDR-3. If the coder senses a loss of communication, the CDR-3 begins operating in a fail safe mode. When the fail safe mode is active all outputs, (tone and dry contact) activate with a march time code. The CDR-3 provides buffering for up to fifty active codes. The mode and baud rates are dipswitch select-able. The coder outputs four rounds of code and then, through DIP switch selected options, will either: 1) stop and wait for next code; 2) continue; or, 3) change to march time code until reset.

EST3I n t e l l i g e n t I n i t i a t i n g D e v i c e s
EST3’s Signature Series intelligent analog-address-able system is an entire family of life safety detectors as well as mounting bases, multiple-function input and output modules, and user-friendly maintenance and service tools.
Making the best of true multisensor capability, Signature Series detectors continually monitor the protected space with their on-board sen-sors, each of which is finely tuned to detect a different characteristic of combustion. All this informa tion is gathered and run through a sophisticated algorithm that compares the sensor readings over time to known signatures of fires. Only when a match is found will an alarm condition occur. This means that a single multisensor detector can distinguish between a harmless puff of dust and a wisp of smoke; between hot, humid weather and a serious life safety condition.
On-board processing and distributed intel-ligence also results in advanced features that save time and money...
Self-diagnostics and History Log – Signature Series devices constantly run self-checks to provide important maintenance information. The results of these checks are automatically updated and permanently stored in the device’s non-volatile memory.
Automatic Device Mapping – The Signature Loop Con-troller learns where each device’s serial number address is installed relative to other devices on the circuit. This mapping
function is invaluable for tracking down unexpected or missing device addresses, or finding changes to wiring. The System Definition Utility program also uses this mapping feature to produce system layout or As-Built drawings showing such details as banch wiring (T-taps), device types and their addresses.
Fast Stable Communication – Built-in intelligence means less information needs to be sent between the device and the Signature Loop Controller, making the circuit less sensitive to noise and wire characteristics. This renders shielded wiring unnecessary. In fact, exist-ing wiring can be used by Signature Series devices in most retrofit situations.
Testing & Maintenance – Each detector automati-cally identifies when it is dirty or defective and causes a “dirty detector” message. The detector’s sensitiv ity measurement can also be transmitted to the loop con-troller. A sensitivity report may be printed to satisfy NFPA
sensitivity mea surements. The user-friendly maintenance program shows the current state of each detector and other pertinent messages. When the CO sensor’s electrochemi-cal cell reaches its end of life, the detector signals a trouble condition to the control panel. The sensor/daughterboard module is field-replaceable.

a standard part of life safety strate gies everywhere. Monitored CO detection is becoming
mandated with increasing frequency in all types of commercial applications, but particularly
in occupancies such as hotels, rooming houses, dormitories, day care facilities, schools,
hospitals, assisted living facilities, and nursing homes. In fact, more than half of the U.S.
population already lives in states requiring the installation of CO detectors in some com-
mercial occupancies. This is because car bon monoxide is the leading cause of accidental
poisoning deaths in America. Known as the “Silent Killer,” CO is odorless, tasteless, and
colorless. It claims nearly 500 lives, and results in more than 15,000 hospital visits annually.

Fire DetectorsIntelligent Multisensor Photoelectric/Heat DetectorContains a fixed-temperature heat sensor to detect heat from fire and a photoelectric smoke sensor to detect smoke. Unlike simple multi-criteria detectors, the SIGA2-PHS can report the heat and photo elements as separate event types — or together. This permits the photo element of the detector to report, for example, a supervisory event during the day, and an alarm event at night – while the heat element always reports an alarm.

Signature Series intelligent input/output modules feature multiple user-set personality codes that define the module’s behavior.
Signature Series input/output modules are extremely flexible and powerful devices that gather analog information from the slave devices connected to them and convert this data into digital signals. They are available in models that mount in standard one- or two-gang electrical boxes, as well as versions that plug into UIO motherboards. The actual function of each module is determined by its installer-selected personality code. This is downloaded to the module from the Signature Loop Controller during system configuration. Because they are intelligent devices, all decisions are made at the module. This allows lower communication speed but very fast control panel response time and less sensitivity to line noise and loop wiring properties. As a result, twisted or shielded wire is not required.

Module mounting and installation options
Signature Series input/output modules are available in models that feature two mounting options: standard mount and plug-in.
Standard mount models are installed to North American two-gang or one-gang electrical boxes, making them ideal for locations where only one module is required. Separate I/O and data loop connections
are made to each module.
Plug-in UIO modules mount to UIO moth-erboards. Two- and six-module UIO
motherboards are available, mak-ing them ideal for installations
where more than one module is required. Motherboards can accommodate individual risers for each on-board module,
or shared risers in any combination with their UIO modules. All wiring connections are made
to terminal blocks on the motherboard. UIO assemblies may be mounted in either cabinets, or standard electrical enclosures.

Synchronization Output Module
The Synchronization Output Module is an intelligent device that connects a supervised output circuit to a 24 Vdc riser. The output wiring is monitored for open circuits and short circuits. A short circuit will cause the fire alarm control panel to inhibit the activation of the audible/visual signal circuit so the riser is not connected to the wiring fault. Upon command from the Signature loop controller, the Auto-Sync Output Module connects the output circuit to the riser input. The output circuit operates polarized audible and visual appliances that have an adjustable resynchronizing feature.

Waterflow/Tamper Module
The SIGA-WTM Waterflow/Tamper Module is a two circuit intelligent module. Circuit 1 is for Class B normally-open waterflow alarm switches. When the input contact is closed for approximately 16 seconds, an “alarm” signal is sent to the loop controller. Circuit 2 is for Class B normally open dry contact supervisory and tamper switches. When the input contact is closed, an “active” signal is sent to the loop controller. Conditions on both circuits are latched at the module.

Isolator Module
The SIGA-IM Isolator Module is an intelligent device that allows part of the Signature data loop to continue operating in the event of a short circuit. The module can be wired into a Class A data loop at any point. A maximum of 96 isolator modules can be installed on one circuit. If a fault occurs, the isolator cuts power to all devices beyond the isolator on the loop. Once activated, the line fault isolator continuously checks the faulted side of the loop to determine if the short still exists. When the fault is cleared, the module automatically restores the entire data loop to its normal condition.

Releasing Module
The Signature Series Releasing Module (SIGA-REL) is an analog addressable module that works with fire suppression systems designed to release extinguish-ing gas such as Halon. Its primary function is the control of sprinkler pre-action routines and the initiation of suppression system deluge functions. The module is easily configured in the field and offers a wide range of options that prevent the unnecessary release of extinguishing agent.
The SIGA-REL is a network component consisting of:• Two supervised release circuits• Two supervised pre-release circuits• One supervised manual
release input circuit• One supervised abort cir-
cuit for N/O abort switch• One first alarm output
relay (Form C Contact)
The releasing module includes a built-in timer that inhibits the deluge function during the pre-action routine. One of four pre-action routines, may be selected by means of dip-switches on the module. The duration of automatic and manual time delays, as well as the abort time settings are also selectable with dip-switches. The SIGA-REL mounts inside an MFC-A cabinet or other suitable UL-listed electrical enclosure. Each MFC-A will hold one SIGA-REL.

Firefighters’ TelephonesFirefighters’ telephones are typically installed in corridors, lobbies, mechanical rooms, stairways, or other stategic locations. When lifted from its cradle, or plugged into a suitable wall jack, the hand-set activates audible and visible signals at the EST3 control panel.
Edwards fire alarm telephones are rugged communications de-vices for emergency use. Enclosed keylocked telephone stations comprise three separately ordered components: the handset assembly, the frontplate, and the wallbox. Depending on how the phones are wired, they are supervised for three or four state operation. Frontplates are available with either metal or break glass insterts.
MEA approved warden stations feature doors with magnetic latches and one-state handsets with armoured cords. Warden stations mount to 6832-1 wallboxes. Portable handsets plug into one-gang receptacles. Handsets are available in black or red. The TCS-6 cabinet provides storage for up to six handsets.

Temporal Horns and Horn-Strobes During installation, the Horn is configured for steady or temporal tone signal. When temporal output is selected, all Horns on a common two-wire circuit are self-synchronized. Integrity Series Horns emit a low frequency “growling” tone that demands attention. Horns can be configured for either high output (98 dBA) or low output (94 dBA); and are listed for outdoor use.

Signal Master
The Signal Master is a simple-to-use accessory that adds enhanced fea-tures to Genesis and Integrity strobes and Horn-Strobes. It is a dual-purpose module that provides UL 1971 required precision synchronization for con-nected Integrity and Genesis strobes, and independent control for connected Genesis Horns over a single pair of wires. Two methods of Horn control are available: traditional Horn silence; or, normally-closed contact. Both methods may be used to silence Horns without turning off strobes on the same circuit. Two models are available. The Genesis “piggyback” model doesn’t require a separate electrical box. It simply snaps to the back of the first G1 signal on the circuit. The remote mount model mounts in a North American 2½ inch (64 mm) deep one-gang box.

Door Holders Electromagnetic Door Holders
Edwards electromagnetic door holders keep doors open until signaled by the fire alarm system, a heat detector, a smoke detector, or an electrical switch. Door holders should be installed wherever doors may be effectively used to confine smoke and fire, or where the release of a self-closing door from a remote location is required. Fail-safe operation is an inherent feature of these door holders. If power fails, doors are released automatically, but may be opened or closed manually at any time. All units are free of moving parts, are self-contained, and require no maintenance. Door holders have a holding force of approximately 15-25 Lbf (66-111N).

Relays Four-Voltage SPDT/DPDT Control Relays
MR Series multi-voltage control relays are ideal for applications where local contacts are required for system status, remote contacts, or for control of electrical loads and general pur-pose switching. They are suitable for use with HVAC temperature control, fire alarm, security, energy management, and lighting control systems. Relays provide 10-Amp contacts, which may be operated by one of four input control voltages. Each relay position contains a red LED that indicates the relay coil is energized. Relays may be snapped apart from a standard four-module assembly and used independently.

SPDT RelaysSingle-pull/double-throw relays are ideal for applications where local or remote con-tacts are required for control of electrical loads. They are suitable for use with HVAC, temperature control, fire alarm, security, energy management, and lighting control systems. Each relay position contains a high-intensity LED which, when illuminated, indicates the relay coil is energized. Individual relay circuits may be snapped apart from standard four- or eight-position modules, and are also available in a single-circuit configuration. The common power to each relay position is bussed on the printed wiring board, which permits power to be connected only once per multi-position module.
Single-Voltage Manual Override Relays
MR-600 series relays provide SPDT, 10-Amp contacts with manual override capability by means of an ON-AUTO-OFF switch. The relay requires a 24Vac or 24Vdc power source supplied by the controlling system. With the switch in the ON position the power relay is energized. With the switch in the AUTO position the relay is allowed to operate as signaled by the controlling system. With the switch in the OFF position the relay cannot be energized.

Proven leadership. Proud heritage.
Shared vision.
In 1872 when Robert Edwards
installed an electrically-operated
gas lamp igniter in a New York
City church, he began a tradition
of innovation that would chart
the course of building safety and
security for the next 140 years.
Today the company that bears his
name draws on this rich legacy of
inventiveness, and benefits from
fresh new alliances established
with one underlying goal:
uncompromised excellence.
Our EST brand under
the Edwards banner meets
this goal with quality products
and an exceptional sensitivity
to the needs of our customers.
Now we have access to the
combined resources, talent, and
experience that is already setting
a coordinated plan for excellence
into action. The result is a unique
synergy sustained by a strong
organization with a well-defined
vision of the future.
That vision of excellence
is why, with more than a century
of solid growth behind us, you can
put your trust in Edwards.
Our respected brand represented exclusively by EST Strategic Partners:
Innovation, leadership, and a rich tradition of excellence
Whether EST life safety systems are protecting the lives and livelihoods of the
people who make businesses run, or the lives entrusted to the care of public
institutions; whether they’re charged with protecting the guests of the world’s
finest hotels, or preserving irreplaceable artifacts that bring history to life; EST
stands alone as the brand closely associated with some of the most important
and far-reaching developments in the life safety industry today.
Our strength is in our Strategic Partners — the people and organizations
we entrust with the technology that has charted the course of life safety protec-
tion for decades. Strategic Partners are not middlemen or go-betweens. They
are independent contractors that form an integral part of the Edwards marketing
and support organization. As insiders, they enjoy exclusive access to products,
custom design innovations, specialized training, and factory direct pricing. Yet
as successful independent contractors, they are adept at ensuring that each
submittal is strong and competitive, and that each bid is locally relevant to your
installation. As local businesses they not only have to earn your trust — they
have to keep it.
Together these strengths set EST installations apart, and have earned this
brand a special place among life safety and security solutions available today.
Perhaps that’s why EST products and systems have become the choice of
building owners, architects and engineers around the globe. And why many of
the world’s most cherished landmarks are protected by Edwards products that
bear the EST mark. From the Bibliotheca Alexandrina Museum in Egypt, to the
modern-day sphinx at the Luxor Hotel in Las Vegas, professionals who design,
own and occupy the world’s most impressive structures have come to know
that the safest and most survivable solution today is an EST solution.
See what’s possible now.
